Cuomo Offers Proposals To Combat Sexual Harassment

Governor Andrew Cuomo will be speaking about workplace sexual harassment during today’s State of the State Address. Cuomo is proposing a multi-faceted approach including a uniform code of sexual harassment for all state and local government branches along with mandating private companies which do business with the state to provide sexual assault and harrassment statistics in order to prevent secrecy. The proposal also forbids using taxpayer money to pay for individual sexual harassment settlements.
